Migration Not Linked to Crime Rise
A large-scale study involving more than 11,000 neighborhoods across over 100 American cities showed that the increase in the number of undocumented immigrants is not linked to higher crime rates. Between 2010 and 2018, the percentage of this group in the population decreased from 5.6% to 4.8%, with declines observed in property crimes and serious assaults, and no evidence suggesting a connection to an increase in violent crimes. Researcher Charis Coopers noted that undocumented immigrants are often more vulnerable to theft and tend to handle more cash transactions and lack bank accounts, which exposes them to greater risk.
